Free Choice: First two sketches are at church of the Autostrada outside
of Florence showing the depth and shadows caused by light and form. The form of
the church is impressive but pales in comparison to the interior. The amount
layers within the structure of this church is incredible. Michelucci
intertwines massing and tectonics at every scale, in every space within the
building.
Barcelona Pavilion: The third sketch I just wanted to simply draw out how
gridded the design of the Pavilion is. Every architectural move was
designed within a rigid gridded plan. I was impressed by how clean and simple
the Pavilion was, down to every joint and It was clear that designing within a
grid was the main driving factor behind this.
Park Guell: one of my favorite spots within Barcelona.
The park was surprisingly huge offering better views at every corner. The colonnaded
walkways added another dimension to what the landscape that most parks are
missing. The way Gaudi planned out the paths and resting points within the park
was extremely thought out. The shadows make the park ever changing as you can
view the sun rise from the east and set in the west.
